I can only see blk/white on my worksheets. I can change text color and/or
highlight a cell and it appears as though nothing happened. But - when I
pull up the 'preview' ... the colors show and the colors print correctly.

I want to use the highlight to mark cells that will be variable information
each time I use the template, so I need to be able to see the colors when the
worksheet is in 'active mode'. (hope that makes sense)

I did something that caused this problem... wasn't always like this.

Using Office XP

Thanks!
